Peace family,
I was having a conversation the other day with someone and the topic of heirloom carrots came up. I was aware of heirloom carrots from my culinary years so it wasn't a surprise to me. This year was the first time they heard of it.
I was interested in looking up the benefits of heirloom carrots versus regular orange carrots and this was an article I found. I just want to share it with y'all 💜

Have you heard of or used heirloom vegetables before?
What was the vegetable and application?
They get used quite a bit in the fine dining food industry. Flavour is the same but it adds some colour to the plate.
